Our Motto
“Wisdom begins with respect for the Lord.” — Proverbs 9:10
Our Statement of Faith
The Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms. has been the doctrinal foundation of our school since our beginning in 1961.
In the tradition of the Reformed church, the Fairfax Christian School teaches that all Scripture is self-attesting, and being Truth, requires our unreserved submission in all areas of life. The infallible Word of God, the Old and New Testaments is a complete and unified witness to God’s redemptive acts culminating in the incarnation of the Living Word, the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible, uniquely and fully inspired by the Holy Spirit, is the supreme and final authority on all matters on which it speaks.
Our Honor Code and Pledge
“I will not lie, cheat or steal, nor tolerate anyone who does."
Our honor code and pledge sets the highest moral and ethical standards for our students and faculty. At the fall orientation, students are asked to sign a banner acknowledging the honor code. All students are required to comply with the honor code and pledge.
All assignments, including homework, papers, quizzes, and tests must have the following signed pledge:
"I pledge that I have neither given nor received unauthorized help during this assignment;
nor observed any other student violating the honor code.”
